Connecting the Speaker Cables
Screw-type speaker terminals
Strip 1/2" to 5/8" (12 to 15 mm) of
insulation from the ends of the
speaker cables, and twist the bare
wires tightly, as shown.
Using Banana Plugs (North American models)
• If you are using banana plugs, tighten the speaker terminal before inserting the banana plug.
• Do not insert the speaker code directly into the center hole of the speaker terminal.
Push-type speaker terminals
Strip 3/8" to 1/2" (10 to 12 mm) of insulation from the ends of
the speaker cables, and twist the bare wires tightly, as shown.
